HENRY N. FISCUS, an enterprising farmer and stock raiser
of Jefferson Township, near the little village of 
Middletown, was born April 20, 1854 on the same farm on
which he yet lives, and is the twelfth child born to 
Jacob and Jane (Bowen) Fiscus, the former a native of
North Carolina and the latter of Ohio and of German and
Irish extraction. They were among the earliest settlers
of Owen County coming as early as 1819, and are still
living on the old homestead.
Henry N. was reared upon the home farm, and remained with
his parents until he was twenty one years of age. He was
united in marriage to Sarah J. Herrington, a native of
this county , October 17, 1875. Four children have 
crowned this happy marriage--Rosy M; Rosaline (deceased),
Jesse J. and Homer A. He and his wife are members of the
Christian Church. He is a sympathizer with the Democratic
party and is an energetic, wide awake, well to do young
man.
